I originally had a B5.5 estate, which after 230k and doing 70k in 2 years due to driving to a job far away each day, it died a horrible death and was exchanged for a.....1.8 TDCI LX Ford Focus
It was an impulse buy because the estate was losing water every journey and had to go. I hated this car, just a box with no heart or soul, build quality was awful. It developed an intermittent fueling issue which was going to cost silly money to fix. NEVER will I buy another ford again.
SO yesterday I got a B5.5 saloon, 100k on the clock, full service history, 2 owners, for 2k and in dam good condition. Loving it already.
This isn't going to be an epic readers ride, because it's mainly going to remain tidy and OEM, but thought I would share it with you all.
oh and here is my other car, but that's a different story
